I have made this recipe countless times and it couldn’t be tastier or easier! I use jarred minced garlic and I actually use evaporated milk instead of regular milk. I don’t think I have ever made it in a pie dish-I always make it in an 8 inch (fills up almost to the top) or a 9 inch square pan. Also, I use Jimmy Dean Sage Sausage instead of the rubbed sage. My husband loves this dish and I have brought it to many brunch parties and I always get asked for the recipe. Thanks so much for such a great recipe!

Can you please put English equivalents in as its hard to do most of these as it’s hard to work out like this one is saying a biscuit mix ? Not helpful . Many thanks Mia

Ok…..it says to use minced garlic. I’m going to assume that means the dried kind in the jar; however not sure. I only had garlic powder or fresh garlic cloves on hand. I minced a larger clove but still how did I know that equaled 3 tsps? So then for good measure I sprinkled in a goodly amount of garlic powder….well that was the mistake I guess…..not so much to me since I like garlic and altho hubby does too he thought the garlic was too predominant and overpowered the sausage taste. I had used Bob Evans reg sausage and maybe that’s not as flavorful anyway. He claims he likes Tennessee Pride best as far as good flavoring. Ok, I did not use the cheese called for. I didn’t have Mont Jack so just used a Mexican blend. Next time I’ll buy the specific cheese; however not sure the cheese is that important. We did not taste the sage and I knew that would most likely be the case going in because my sage was too old. I opened and gave a smell and really couldn’t smell much of anything. The best by date was 2005 I think so what was I thinking! Making this dish was sort of last minute-ish so I just used what I had on hand and didn’t bother to buy anything special.
As far as how it went together, it was great. Easy and it cooked well and set up nice and after resting, it cut real well. I cut it in 8 slices and we had two left….and you can be sure I’ll be eating a slice for lunch!
So….there will be a next time and we both talked about maybe I could even use the sage variety of sausage ….but if I am going to do reg flavor and add the sage, I will be buying fresh sage!
It’s a good recipe. We had for dinner but you could also fix it for breakfast or a brunch. Could be a good holiday breakfast too. We just had a nice tossed salad with it.
